Fred Little, Organiser,  writes… The series has been delayed this year due to the Olympic programme so there was only four events, all to be held on the lower circuit.
The first race for Category ABC&D (40-59yrs) attracted 25 starters and was run over 1 hour plus 5 laps. The first two laps were very fast and soon off the front of the bunch was Stephen Campbell (Twickenham) a new rider to the Hog Hill circuit, chased by Barry Neal (Ciclos Uno) and Chris Baldwin (Eagle).
Barry Neal managed to get with Stephen Campbell and kept ahead of the main bunch for a few laps but they were eventually pulled back. Regular winner at Hog Hill Antony Wallis (Private) then made his move and together with Stephen Campbell gained a lead of ten seconds over the bunch. Stephen Campbell was unable to stay with Antony Wallis and after a three laps dropped back to the bunch. Antony Wallis powered on and in his usual style eventually lapping most of the field to take the honours.
Barry Neal and Chris Baldwin got clear of the bunch and at the finish it was Barry Neal who took second place with Chris Baldwin third.

In the Category E/F/G/H (60yrs plus) race there were 18 starters and the race was run over 50 minutes plus 3 laps. The bunch stayed together for the first half of the race then Dick Naylor (SFA) decided it was time to make a move and broke away from the bunch never to be seen again.
In doing so, Dick at one time caught and passed the A/B/C/D race which was on the circuit at the same time. Dick eased and let the A/B/C/D race get back in front of him but maintained half a lap lead over the E/F/G/H bunch at the finish. Ollie MacPherson (4T+) won the sprint for second place with Ralph Keeler (Wheels in Wheels) third.
